Jenna Ortega and Wednesday

Jenna Ortega's ascent to stardom reached new heights with her portrayal of Wednesday Addams in Tim Burton's Netflix series, "Wednesday." As the beloved daughter of Morticia and Gomez Addams, Ortega captured audiences' imaginations with her brooding yet endearing portrayal of the iconic character. Despite being a relatively recent addition to her repertoire, Wednesday has quickly become a symbolic role for Ortega, cementing her status as a rising star in the entertainment industry.

Having commenced her acting career at the tender age of 10, Ortega initially found recognition as a Disney Channel star. However, it was her breakout performance on Wednesday that allowed her to transcend the confines of the Disney label and explore more diverse and mature roles. With appearances in projects like "Scream," "X," and the highly anticipated "Beetlejuice," set to debut later this year, Ortega continues to showcase her versatility and range as an actress, captivating audiences with her talent and charisma across various genres and platforms.
